They were seriously worried about her...

September 04 2018

Former Hi-5 star Lauren Brant shocked fans when she broke down on social media last night.

 The girlfriend of embattled ex-AFL player Barry Hall stunned fans when she told them she was scared to post a very emotional video of herself for all her followers to see.

The mum-of-one, who gave birth to little Miller 15 months ago after meeting Barry on reality TV show I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, then proudly wore the flower crown she had worn to her baby shower to make her tearful announcement. Fans were worried that Lauren was about to talk about partner Barry, who lost his job after making inappropriate comments while commentating on a football game.

But on her Instagram story Lauren explained she was really sad that Miller had fully decided to wean himself off breastmilk and she felt very emotional about it after loving feeding her son for 15 months. She explained that she had found it an incredibly difficult experience at first because she struggled with mastitis.

‘Miller’s completely weaned off breastmilk and he did that himself so I am really happy for him that he is developing into an amazing toddler but it’s very emotional because I have lost my little baby, she said tearfully.

‘I was so determined to be able to breastfeed so I pushed through having mastitis five times because it was really important to me,’ she added.

"Thank you Miller for teaching me how to love in a way I never knew possible and for sharing such a wonderful 15 months breastfeeding with me as your mumma, nourishing you and comforting you." After wiping away the tears, I have decided to write about our weaning experience. How Miller made the choice to say 'bye' to my breastmilk and 'hello' to Munchkin Grass Fed from @munchkin_anz. Which we both absolutely love. It was a very emotional transition for me as I know it would be for many other mums, I'd love to hear about your journeys too? Trust me, it feels good to recognise what emotions you may be feeling and channel it into a positive celebration of life.

She then hosted a morning tea with her mum and sister-in-law (complete with boob cupcakes) and cracked open the champagne!

 ‘Here’s to drinking without having to count the hours between feeds,’ she laughed.
